With LandYield, you get paid to defer timber harvests and store more carbon in your forests.
LandYield's unique carbon credit revenue program allows you to create a new revenue stream from your forest while enhancing its recreational and environmental values.
Reliable Carbon Revenue Stream
Competitive payments, paid more often
Our carbon revenue program offers quarterly payments starting shortly after enrollment. For the first three years of the program, LandYield guarantees a competitive price per carbon offset issued. For the remaining years, payments are based on a fixed percentage of the carbon offset price – allowing you to benefit if future prices increase.

“The LandYield carbon program is a smart, sustainable way to turn stewardship into recurring income. Enrollment is straightforward, and LandYield handles the heavy lifting, connecting your land’s natural carbon absorption with buyers seeking credible offsets. It’s a win-win: you support environmental resilience while building a reliable income stream, all without disrupting your land’s natural rhythm.”
Joshua Collins Virginia
“LandYield is a great program for land owners. The money is good, and the people are great to work with. A+”
Jason Cantrell Tennessee
“We love that Landyield provides income to preserve the beauty of our property. We are getting paid some green to be able to enjoy the colors of fall!”
Joe Butler Tennessee
“We recently joined the LandYield Carbon Program and are happy with the financial benefits. They help pay taxes, maintain a healthy forest, and preserve the land for our grandchildren. We hope this helps with climate change, since trees are the lungs of the earth.”
Gail Marney Virginia
“As a Conservative, I was skeptical about the carbon credit program, but I was surprised at how much of a financial boost it was. We bought a farm for hunting with some large old-growth hardwood. With this program, I get the money and still get to hunt my beautiful forests. It’s a win-win for a conservative who wants income but also his trees. I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to protect their hunting land but still get it use it.”
John Connell Alabama
“The carbon we sell to LandYield provides us with the finances necessary to improve our water quality, wildlife habitat, and recreation opportunities. Expanding our farm’s income to include a climate-related commodity was smooth and seamless.”
Mark Mitchell Virginia
“Several years ago, we started looking for income opportunities for our forests in the carbon world. We tried working with several different organizations and for one reason or another they couldn’t manage to get us enrolled. When we explored working with LandYield, their program made it so easy, we were able to enroll rather seamlessly. For nearly a year now, every quarter we’ve been getting payments, which is a wonderful acknowledgment of our conservation work”
Jamie Phillips Eddy Foundation
“LandYield has afforded my family the ability to sustain our family farm for generations to come. We have had nothing but great experiences dealing with the Landyield team and they have been very responsive and informative with answering all of our questions.”
George Gammon Mississippi
“I am the 3rd generation to own our family land, and I was looking for a way to ensure our family’s legacy would be able to continue to the next generation. Having a plan in place that provides a continuous means of paying the costs associated with land management, while contributing to improvement in our climate, allowed for a win-win situation by partnering with LandYield.”
Anthony Maddox Alabama
“The LandYield Program has given us a great option to help pay the expenses associated with property ownership. While some neighbors choose to clearcut trees, removing hardwood forests for a lifetime, we want our property with beautiful forests to be enjoyed by our family for many years to come. And the LandYield Program compliments our vision for our property.”
Emmett Beers Alabama
“LandYield has been a terrific group to deal with. They’ve followed through on everything and have been easy to deal with. I would definitely recommend this developer to anyone looking to generate revenue in the carbon space.”
Dennis O'Brien Kentucky
“We are very happy with the LandYield program so far. It has helped fund the conservation of our family farm and timberland through over six generations. My wife Robin and I pieced the farm tracts back together close to what her great-grandfather held over one hundred years ago. We plan to keep it together in a trust to pass on to our grandchildren. By doing so, we are able to provide a place for the next generations to hunt and enjoy the outdoors while preserving her family history.”
Brad Smith Tennessee
“ACR is excited to see smaller forestland owners entering the carbon market. Our new methodology for Improved Forest Management on Small Non-Industrial Private Forestlands, developed in collaboration with Finite Carbon, rigorously addresses many of the hurdles to their participation in carbon markets to date”
Kurt Krapfl DIRECTOR OF FORESTRY AT AMERICAN CARBON REGISTRY
“We’ve just received our first quarterly payment from LandYield and we’re so excited to be on board. The guidance provided every step of the way was much appreciated. The carbon offset market is fascinating, and I’m thrilled to be involved. It’s a game-changer for small landowners to have access to this opportunity. This initiative is not just promising but revolutionary.”
Archer Bennett, Landowner OKLAHOMA
“Milliken Advisors looks forward to utilizing LandYield’s offset program as a management tool for small forest landowners. LandYield removes barriers to forest carbon markets for small to medium size landowners, providing potential revenues that otherwise would not exist. Creating revenue positive options is key to long-term ownership and stability of our forests in South Carolina.”
Milliken Advisors SOUTH CAROLINA
The Kidd Family of South Carolina wanted to ensure that their forests continued to provide green space for the future. Here’s what they had to say about enlisting with LandYield: “If by utilizing our forests, small landowners can make cumulative difference in reducing carbon footprints while making some additional funds for maintenance, all the better!”
Kidd Family South Carolina
“The LandYield Carbon Program has provided my wife and I with a reliable financial mechanism to ensure a legacy of family land ownership. And being part of the climate change solution adds even more conviction to our decision to partner with LandYield.”
